Roasted Vegetables with Herbed Yogurt

What’s for dinner tonight? There’s always a vegetable in season to slice, dice, then drizzle with oil for roasting when you have one of the best organic farms at your beck and call for inspiration. Lay those roasted beauties onto a dollop of herbed Greek yoghurt for a satisfyingly simple main or side dish.
